Robert Hackleman, a long-time law partner of Republican U.S. Senate candidate George LeMieux, was not reappointed to the Florida Supreme Court Judicial Nominating Commission, Gov. Rick Scott announced today. Rutledge Liles, a former Florida Bar president, will succeed him.

A spokeswoman for Hackleman said he did not seek another term.

Scott re-appointed Jason Unger, an attorney for the Bush-Cheney 2000 presidential campaign team, to the commission.
